Sarasota brunch is its own dress code. It's not the brunch dress code of Manhattan or LA — it's slightly more relaxed but still pulled-together, with room for sun, salt air, and a walk on St. Armands after. Here are five Sunday brunch outfits we'd actually wear, styled with pieces from our Pineapple Lain Boutique on Main Street.
1. Owen's Fish Camp on Burns Court — laid-back and a little boho
Owen's has Spanish-moss-draped tables, a fried oyster po'boy worth the wait, and a vibe that's southern-coastal without trying. We'd wear a flowy mini dress in a soft print (the Citrus Splash twist-front or the Santorini Shores mini), paired with leather slide sandals from our shoes collection and gold layered necklaces from our necklaces edit. Throw a denim jacket in your bag for if it gets cool. Bring a small straw clutch instead of a big tote — Owen's outdoor tables get crowded.
2. Indigenous on Pineapple Avenue — chef's-counter polished
Indigenous is more elevated. Tasting menus, a wine list that takes itself seriously. We'd wear a structured set from our matching sets — the Riviera Pinstripe wide-leg pants with the matching halter top, or a linen Marbella wide-leg in basil green with a fitted tank. Add a kitten-heel sandal, statement gold earrings from our earrings collection, and a structured woven straw bag with vegan leather trim from our bags collection.
3. Mattison's Forty-One — beachfront brunch
Mattison's is the kind of place where everyone's just come from a paddle or is headed to the beach after. Lean into it. A breezy maxi dress — the Vittoria strapless in fern green, or the Cabana Bloom halter maxi — with flat sandals, a panama hat from our hats collection, and stacked waterproof gold-fill bracelets from our Erin Gray collection (they survive the boat, the beach, and the bottomless mimosas).
4. Made Restaurant on Boulevard of the Arts — date-night brunch
Made has cocktails before noon and a brunch crowd that dresses up. We'd wear a fitted bodysuit with our After Hours Romper in navy — fitted bodice, smocked back, adjustable straps. Add block-heel sandals, our Sea Glass pintuck romper if you want full coverage, or pair the romper with a denim jacket for evening. Statement chandelier earrings, a small chain crossbody bag, and red lip if the mood is there.
5. Perq Coffee on Cocoanut Avenue — the casual Sunday morning
You're not "dressed for brunch" — you're getting an oat-milk latte and reading by the window for an hour. Pull-on linen pants from our pants collection (the Marbella wide-leg works), a fitted ribbed tank, a cardigan thrown over (the Barefoot Breeze sheer belted cardigan in ivory), and leather slide sandals. Add a small woven bag, hair claw clip, and dainty layered necklaces. Effortless on purpose.
The Sarasota Sunday capsule
If you want one capsule that handles all five — pack a maxi dress, a structured set, a denim jacket, leather slides, a straw bag, and your waterproof gold-fill bracelets. That covers Owen's, Mattison's, Indigenous, Made, and Perq with mix-and-match versatility.
